I'm with you all the way on this one.

Respect and civility has been discarded since we stopped saying the pledge allegiance to the flag and forbidden prayer in school.  

If you want it back the solution is easy.

Encourage people to embrace respect and civility regardless of gender, race, or creed. Instead of celebrating our differences celebrate those things which have allowed us to have differences and manage them with respect and civility.

Where is civil courage? It disappeared due to a litigious me me me society.

Sorry Tina you got me going. End of rant. You made some great points.

Hi Trina

Like you I'm sick of the community spam and low life's who only join to promote scams.

I think many people are thinking twice now before joining every community or social site that is new.

I don't join all these new communities that offer everything under the sun.

It's obvious that software owners who design the software don't understand human behavior and leave decent members open to harassment pornography and spam.

I suggest to people thinking of joining social communities, do some research first before joining.

Trina I have join a lot of local Australian groups where members meet up.
